In yesterday’s post-Superbowl Monday haze, I spent my entire afternoon in the kitchen dealing with leftovers and clearing out the fridge to make room for Thursday’s vegetable delivery. Halfway through making my boyfriend’s day-late lunches for the rest of the week, though, I realized we were out of Hoisin sauce. Since I couldn’t be fucking bothered to change out of my pajamas and go to the store, I decided to make my own with whatever I had on-hand at the lowest possible effort level, and ended up with something that honestly tastes pretty close. It’s by no means authentic, but it gets the job done.
This recipe makes about 1 cup sauce.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- 2 tbsp honey
- 4 tsp rice vinegar
- 4 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp sriracha
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp white pepper
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth, about 3 minutes.
This recipe keeps in the fridge for a few weeks if kept in a sealed air-tight container.
